Participants of some open source communities sees the W3C Document License as a legal threat to their implementations. For example, in a validation software, where you would have to include parts of the document into it, the W3C Document License would prevent them. I'm certainly having only a partial rendering of the issue. I wonder if it has been more documented elsewhere on W3C site the details of the issue. link? -- Karl Dubost Montréal, QC, Canada http://www.la-grange.net/karl/
